Bless you Paula, for having to make that most difficult decision for your precious baby, and let him go - where he is now free. Free without pain and problems, running and enjoying the beautiful days as he awaits you at Rainbow Bridge.

You gave him so much love, caring, and were absolutely the best momma he could he possibly have. And I know you cherish all your most special times, and your 'secrets' together.

I wish I could be there in person to wrap my arms around you. Please know, I am sending you MUCH love, light, peace, and GREAT BIG COMFORTING HUGS to you !!!!

And, sweet AJ, fly free now 'Lion King', and watch over your mama and the pride.

Oh, Paula, I am so sorry. I knew this day was coming very soon from ur last post. I am glad AJ (with his permission) gave u a bit more time to physically be with him. Now he is with u not just in the confines of ur home--but everywhere u ever go. His spirit and light are always going to be a part of u. But... I know that AJ not being there physically is so painful.I wish so much I could take ur pain away. I truly do.

Thank you all.

Our weekend play in the yard seems so strange without AJ there to supervise.

I have a potted plant that wasn't doing so well, to the point the neighbors were making fun of me, as theirs were all so beautiful. It had no flowers at all. When I returned from the vets office after sending AJ to the Rainbow Bridge, the one thing I noticed is, that morning a single flower had opened on the plant. It was amazing how much comfort that one little flower gave.

Today, that plant is loaded with blooming flowers. I'm taking this as my sign that my AJ has arrived and found all our buddies who have gone ahead.

oh Paula, definately a sign .......

AJ, know that you are loved and dearly missed

yes, sweet AJ is dearly missed, as is his Uncle George, who went ahead 8 years ago today. I hope the two of them are together today- George building something, and AJ supervising to make sure he does it right. Love you guys. Easy does it.

Merry Christmas little angel.

Give a hug to all the family there with you. We're roasting a chicken in honor or you today. It's going to be so strange without you standing right in front of the oven, meowing out instructions on the order of who gets served first.

Merry Christmas, my Lion King. I wish you were here to help me keep these rowdy youngsters in line. Skeeter is curled up here next to me, so I'm sure she knows I'm thinking of you. She always seems to know.
